Ports open being shown failed in pfsense

What needs to be configured in pfsense to correctly show ports open
I used an outside website Port Checker - Check Open Ports Online to check ports 80 and 443 it shows the ports open but pfsense shows them failed

Brother, I really think you need to watch Tom’s videos and configuring pfsense. I think you will get a greater understanding of what you are trying to do once you see how things work.

I have and still am but will watch again, I have had this up and going about 5 years ago, port forwarding and the whole thing with multiple static IP’s, this time around I have had nothing but problems, we moved to Germany for 3 years made changes to try and get it going there, but to many privacy laws so I did not finish the setups.

Do you have a public IP address? Does your ISP allow port forwarding?

I have a Static IP from Cox Business which does allow port forwarding

Thanks
